UNION SERVICES
Al the Fert Street Methodist Epis-
COpal Church.

The congregations OF the various
evangelical churches attended the
Fort street M. f. Church yesterday
morning, where a union service was
held. The church had been very
tastefully decorated with Gala lilies
and other flowers, and as was ex-
pected, there was very large attend
ance. Rev. 9. II. Hester, of the
English Lutheran Church, delivered
the sermon, taking for his text Isaiah
63d chapter, 9TH verse. In the
course OF his remarks he said:
We are met here to-day for the prr-
pose of engaging in thanksgiving to
our Heavenly Father, in accordance
with the proclamation of the President
OF the United States. "Who is this
that cometh, Edom, with dyed gar
ments? This that is glorious in his
apparel, travelling in greatness OF his
strength" The Messiah answered !:
81, thatspeak in righteousness, mighty
to save.".

such love and forbearance as to his
chosen. people, Israel. In the era OF
vice and crime he was constantly with
them, pouring out rich mercies and
temporal blessings. His protecting
hand ever lowered over them.
AS we scan the progress of nations
and national prosperity we must be
persuaded that the Lord has not dealt
with any nation as with ours. When
we consider the thirteen colonies,
with their small number OF
inhabitants and rude equipments,
with which to stand in the
face of the grand army OF Great
Britain and bid defiance, we must
conclude that the God of Battle was
indeed with them and that it was He
who guided their councils. Gladstone

United States is one OF the greatest
and wisest productions that ever en-

INVESTORS READ THIS.

A week or two ago there came to
Anaheim ten families, seeking houses
to rent, while they could buy a lot and
build for themselves. There was not
one cottage even to divide with the
ten families. There is not store to
be had to open new business. There
is demand for houses and stores.
Anaheim has two amusement halls,
but she needs a fine opera house. The
citizens are contemplating the erection
of one. Any person who will build
house in Anaheim will rent it at a
good per centage OH its cost the day it is
built. He who will put up a store will
find a tenant as quickly. His money
will be invested we'll tor all time to
come. There is room for great ex-
pansion, the growth has begun and it
will continue.

and the prices OF labor were kept well
up and the price of thread was kept
we'll down, and Southern merchants
found that there were new Gus
TONERS for the best of their cotton
in the market. With each factory
more dwellings went up, and more
butchers and bakers and grocers found
trade, while the original factory
doubled and trebled in size and in the
number of hands employed. Later a
linen thread company saw the advan-
tage of the labor market, and smaller
industries followed. Tho Scotch are a
clannish people, and when a great
oilcloth and linoleum maker in Scot
land arranged with big firm of New
York dry goods men to start an Amer

and enormous works are rising daily,
wherein 500 men, supporting 1900
persons, at least will soon be en-
ployed.
With this comes the announcement
that the Clark Company is about to
double its capacity by the erection OF
more mills. These leaders in indus

A PROTECTIVE TARIFF.
Story of the Manufacture o
Thread in America.

A story of the Protective Tariff may
vet be written with Newark as the
scene. 1t would begin about a score
of wears ago, when the Coates family
of Scotland had established their
thread works in Rhode Island and
were rapidly absorbing the American
business. In Scotland they had inti-
mate friends by the name of Clark,
who were their fierce rivals in busi-
ness. Thd Clarks found themselves
closed from the American trade by a
Yankee device for the encouragement
of American industry. So they de-
termined to come into the land which
their rivals threatened to occupy
to the exclusion of all others and
they selected a suburban portion
of Newark. There they erected fac
tory of considerable size and began
the making of thread. Two members
OF the firm came with the business and
made Newark their home. Some
hundreds of working people were
brought with them, and in little
while small houses were built in the
vicinity OF the factory, then larger
ones, and with the thread workers
came bakers and butchers and grocers.
and exceedingly few saloons. And the
bakers and butchers and grocers built
themselves houses, and other persons
liked their company and built near
them. The hundreds of dwellings be-
came thousands, and the owners of the
thread works built mansions, the
superintendents built handsome CITY
residences and the boom of the Eighth
ward of Newark was the principal
|topic of real estate men and the for
tune OF many who had owned farms
thereabouts.
Then another thread company saw
there was money to be made, and nat
urally sought the vicinity where the
population had been educated in the
trade, as it were. and where labor
market had been formed. And soon
after still another company came, and
each built great factory, and compe-
tition for labor and in the making OF
good and cheap thread was established

The Consumption Of Alcohol on Morality ant
uaaIth


Health.
The following statements made by NJ. de
FlaiX, are deserving the consideration of
students of the alcohol question. NJ. de
Flaix says: "The birth rate is less and the
mortality greater in the departments where
the consumption of alcohol is SMALL that
neither crime nor suicide is in proportion
to alcoholic consumption. Thus in the
Seine-Inferieure the consumption of alco-
hol is three times that in the Noyd. but
suicide is only twice as frequent. In the
Pas de Calais the consumption is twice as
great as that of the Move, while suicide is
two and one-half times less. In the Seine
et-Oise the consumption is one-half less
than that of the Seine Inferieure, but sui
eide in the former is twice that of the lat
ter" Comparing different nations he
says, "France consumes less alcohol than
the United Kingdom; its birth rate is less.
and its mortality, criminality, and suicide
rates are greater. Italy consumes very lit
tie alcohol; its criminality is appalling (et-
yraydnte). Spain consumes three times
less alcohol than Italy; its criminality is
double. Sweden, Denmark and Norway,
with population of about one-third, con-
sumo iour times the quantity of alcohol
consumed in Italy, and yet the criminality
of the former is very small, while that of
the latter is appalling. Russia consumes
4 times the alcohol of France; its birth rate
is almost double. Thus, all the hypothesis
are upset; the most vigorous, the richest
and the most moral of the nations are those
which consume the most alcohol, The
prediction that alcohol will destroy civiliza-
tion and the human race is not supported
by facts. If France, whose vitality is un.
dergoing crisis, were among the nations
which consume most alcohol, she would
serve as all excellent argument; but the
consumption of alcohol by France is mod
crate, and it has been established already
that those parts of France are the most
vigorous where the consumption of alcohol
is greatest. S.

The aspect Of the Lehigh coal strike
continues unchanged. Summed up the
condition of affairs is about as follows:
The miners are as intensely determined as
ever not to go to work until their demands
are complied with, while the operators say
they will not give in TO the miners no mat

miners, it is said, are well supported by
the Knights of Labor in the present fight
and are confident of success. Future de-
